slick sidewalk machine

I happened to see one of our sidewalk guys out last night running this thing and has to share this. I was pretty impressed. It's a z spray z plug with the aerator taken off and replaced with their optional snow blade. www.z-spray.com

the only thing id see is in heavier snow, the front casters would not track well..if the plow was out ahead of the wheels it may be better..but looks like its perfect for light snow, and you don't have a piece of equipment sitting all winter idle.

Looks good. One thing I noticed is that it seems like the blade needs to be a little wider. Leaves quite the mess along sidewalk/curb. How do you clean that mess up, lots already plowed, sidewalk is cleared,what do you do with that snow? Wheelbarrow!

Was this just a trial thing? Because you must have a more efficient piece to do that walk...not to mention messing up that machine with salt. I mean, it looked like it worked, I just don't get why.

No, not a trial thing. Don't understand the concern for salt etc. All metal that's not stainless is covered in bed liner. It's our backup aerator spring and fall so figured and extra season worth of work for it would be great.

Damn salt gets into everything, but my main concern was the engine area and controls. If you're not worried I'm not worried.
